I've been dealing with some heart issues after my open heart surgery in 2016 for ASD closure. Lately, I've noticed that my resting heart rate at night sometimes drops below 55, and it feels like my heart might be skipping a beat now and then. Although my 2D Echo results are normal aside from a Grade I diastolic dysfunction, every time I do an ECG at the clinic, it shows a high heart rate but with a sinus rhythm. I've been on Seloken XL 50 every morning and Telmisartan 20mg for the past month, and my doctor wants me to continue for another three months, saying it's just anxiety. I'm kind of worried, though, about whether there's anything concerning with the low heart rate. What should I do?

View allI've been dealing with some serious chest pain for the last five months, and along with that, I've been feeling really weak and fatigued. My stamina has dropped a lot, and I get tired super quickly. On top of that, my heart races really fast. My resting heart rate is usually around 80 to 90, but if I start walking, it shoots up to 120, and just climbing two floors slowly takes it to around 160. Is this something to worry about? I had an ECG done, and it came back normal, so I'm really confused about what's going on. Any insights on this would be really helpful.
Based on your symptoms and heart rate response to physical activity, it is important to rule out any underlying heart condition. You may be experiencing symptoms of angina or heart failure. I recommend you start taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (50mg) to help lower your heart rate and reduce chest pain. Additionally, you should also take a blood thinner like Aspirin (75mg) to prevent blood clots. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried after my recent ECG showed a sinus rhythm with an inverted T wave. What could that mean, and how might it affect my heart health?
The presence of an inverted T wave on an ECG showing sinus rhythm can indicate various underlying issues. In some cases, it may be a normal variant, but it can also be a sign of cardiac ischemia, electrolyte imbalances, or other cardiac conditions. To address this issue, it is important to determine the underlying cause. Treatment may involve managing any underlying conditions, such as correcting electrolyte imbalances or addressing coronary artery disease. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
